A Jordanian parliamentary source has announced that the Israeli settlers in Hebron ( al-Khalil) tried to attack the speaker of the Jordanian Parliament Abdul Hadi al-Majali during his visit, today with members of a parliamentary delegation at the sight of the Israeli soldiers.

The Jordanian parliamentary source said that al-Majali and his companions and while they were visiting the city of Hebron at 11 a.m. ( Jordan Times) and while in front of the holy al-Ibrahimi mosque a group of Israeli settlers gathered and tried to attack and al-Majali and members of the accompanying delegation, by striking, using their hands the cars of the Jordanian delegations and insulting them by bad words in the presence of the Israeli soldiers who did not move to stop the said aggression attempt.

The Jordanian source said that the guards took al-Majali and his companions out of the place. The same source indicated that al-Majali refused to perform prayers at al-Ibrahimi mosque after he learnt that Israeli forces existed at the gates of the mosques to carry out security inspection measures for the Jordanian delegation before its members get into the mosque.

Al-Majali then held a press conference in which he expressed his strong denunciation to the improper behaviour by the Israeli soldiers and settlers.

Worth mentioning that al-Majali and members of his accompanying delegation are visiting the Palestinian territories since last Wednesday.
